00:00 DaemonFC; That's the thing about hipsters.

00:00 DaemonFC; If the place goes the wrong way again, they're gone like Enron.

00:00 schestowitz; SF is now US

00:00 schestowitz; it's a refuge

00:00 schestowitz; expensive one

00:00 schestowitz; well, less expensive now

00:00 schestowitz; gulag holds overpriced mortgage

00:01 DaemonFC; "The commission announced an increase to its maximum fines under the PIRATE Act which became law more than three years ago and provides for much bigger penalties than in the past in January. The FCC has since sent letter to property owners in New York, New Mexico, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Massachusetts, Washington, and, now, a clean sweep of the second biggest city in the...

00:01 DaemonFC; Puerto Rico, which was stolen in a war.

00:01 DaemonFC; And is not a State.

00:02 DaemonFC; Statehood for Puerto Rico will never happen.

00:02 DaemonFC; The Republicans will never sign off on something that benefits the Democrats.

00:05 bnchs; linux for the playstation 2

00:05 DaemonFC; Useless now, especially for the Web. If you don't update your Web browser every month, sites start breaking by the hundreds.

00:05 bnchs; man that's weak

00:05 bnchs; go use linux for the PS3

00:05 DaemonFC; You can't.

00:05 schestowitz; or raspi3

00:05 DaemonFC; The Mainstream Linux kernel dropped support for the Cell Processor.

00:05 DaemonFC; Sony and IBM were promoting them and nobody actually wanted to license it.

00:06 DaemonFC; It was very poorly designed.

00:07 bnchs; it was well-designed

00:07 DaemonFC; The only reason anyone wanted it was because it was subsidized video game hardware.

00:07 bnchs; just you need work to sync the SPUs together (which you would already do in a x86_64 computer anyway)

00:07 DaemonFC; The SPUs were not a full CPU.

00:07 bnchs; yes i'm aware

00:08 DaemonFC; Architecturally, the closest thing recently on x86 was AMD Bulldozer, which flopped.

00:08 DaemonFC; Even the Phenom II was a faster CPU in some ways.

00:10 DaemonFC; schestowitz I think they cleared the obstruction in the pipes, for now.

00:10 DaemonFC; This new landlord has problems that he didn't even consider.

00:10 DaemonFC; Hiding in the walls.

00:11 DaemonFC; Yeah, I bought dozens of bottles of body wash while they were on ibotta earlier this year.

00:12 schestowitz; still possible to save a lot

00:12 schestowitz; like 100-300 pounds in one day

00:13 DaemonFC; He lost $2.3 million in one day. Plus 50 years of "deferred maintenance".

00:13 DaemonFC; VERY SMART

00:14 DaemonFC; Now hides behind a PO Box so the tenants that are going to be evicted don't know where he lives.

00:14 schestowitz; impulsive

00:14 schestowitz; he should have checked second and third time

00:14 schestowitz; maybe he thought he got a bargain with 100k below asking price

00:15 DaemonFC; mark put it up at like $2.5 million or something.

00:15 DaemonFC; The MARK up.

00:15 DaemonFC; :)

00:15 schestowitz; 800k to 2500k

00:15 schestowitz; in 15 years

00:15 schestowitz; even less

03:00 elusive_woman; 00:46 < DaemonFC> elusive_woman: SeaMonkey is a very fast Web browser.

03:00 elusive_woman; its shit

03:00 elusive_woman; firefox is a real browser

03:01 elusive_woman; 00:48 < DaemonFC> The reason they split most browsers into multi-process is so they can cram a lot of garbage that hurts the users and effectively hacks their computer in it and not have them notice.

03:01 elusive_woman; most processors are multi core so browsing gets faster

03:01 elusive_woman; fail conspiracy theory

03:02 IPFS; Gemini requests since start of month: 216175 total Total number of pages in capsule: 47458 Active: active (running) since Wed 2023-03-08 20:27:21 GMT; 4 months 15 days ago

03:03 IPFS; IPFS local node stats (bandwidth since last reset) calculated.

03:04 IPFS; New daily bulletin is now being generated and assembled.

03:08 DaemonFC; Just turn off the part that makes everything slower.

03:09 DaemonFC; schestowitz Is driving to the bank to cash a check a good use of my time?

03:10 DaemonFC; It used to take a long time after you wrote a check to someone for them to cash it. That's because they had to end up driving to the bank and presenting it, then the bank had to send it to your bank and so on and finally a couple weeks later, it comes out, maybe.

03:10 DaemonFC; Or maybe they just hold onto it for a long time.

03:11 DaemonFC; You have to balance a checkbook and if you make a mistake you have to go back and figure out where, or you start bouncing checks, uh oh.

03:11 DaemonFC; That costs the amount of the check and like $35 and they could do it more than once and then eventually you get a call from the prosecutor wanting to know why you've been writing "hot checks".

03:12 DaemonFC; Banking like they did it 30-40 years ago really sucks.

03:12 DaemonFC; Because you have to keep a rolling record of all of your checks and not get it wrong.

03:13 DaemonFC; Today I can spin up as many bank accounts as I want, link them however I want to.

03:13 DaemonFC; I can't bounce the check for the rent because I put the amount of rent there then write the check and that's all that one gets used for.

03:14 DaemonFC; Landlords get quite angry if you start bouncing checks on them. Then they'll evict, or at least demand that you pay them in some other, less convenient, way. I've never bounced a rent check.

03:14 DaemonFC; I don't plan to.

03:14 DaemonFC; It costs money to abuse other people's confidence in you.

03:15 DaemonFC; If your landlord won't take checks, you might have to add $2 each month to the rent to get a postal money order before you mail THAT.

03:16 DaemonFC; Rent is already expensive. I don't want to add ANOTHER fee to pay it. Not even $2 for a money order.

03:16 DaemonFC; Not to mention there's a "bad boy" list of people who screw banks, called Chexsystems, so it doesn't just get you in trouble with the landlord if you start bouncing checks.

03:17 DaemonFC; Eventually you get cut off from the banking system and get accounts on very harsh terms, or have to resort to using prepaid debit cards that have a lot of fees.

03:18 DaemonFC; Chexsystems isn't really affected by filing bankruptcy. It's not your "credit score", as in FICO..

03:18 DaemonFC; Bankruptcy ruins your score that lenders see, but as long as you're not "on Chexsystems" as having done anything grotesque involving a bank account, you should still be able to use bank accounts.

06:53 DaemonFC; "Searching through a database of 1.6 billion license plate records collected over the last two years from locations across New York State, the AI determined that Zayas car was on a journey typical of a drug trafficker. According to a Department of Justice prosecutor filing, it made nine trips from Massachusetts to different parts of New York between October 2020 and August 2021 following...

06:53 DaemonFC; ...routes known to be used by narcotics pushers and for conspicuously short stays. So on March 10 last year, Westchester PD pulled him over and searched his car, finding 112 grams of crack cocaine, a semiautomatic pistol and $34,000 in cash inside, according to court documents. A year later, Zayas pleaded guilty to a drug trafficking charge."

06:58 DaemonFC; "In pursuit of that elusive profit, the market is looking beyond law enforcement to retail and fast food. Corporate giants have toyed with the idea of tying license plates to customer identities. McDonalds and White Castle have already begun using ALPR to tailor drive-through experiences, detecting returning customers and using past orders to guide them through the ordering process or offer...

22:18 DaemonFC; They have to keep the price down while they pay people to do it, so it's not going to be the best product.

22:25 MinceR; "PLEASE PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON. YOU HAVE 20 SECONDS TO COMPLY."

22:25 DaemonFC; "WE WANT OUR MONEY!"

22:25 schestowitz; like patent trolls

22:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz I poked fun at my mom for her divorce with Dave.

22:26 DaemonFC; I said he wanted alimony from her so he could invest it in cake frosting futures. "No not options trading. A future where there is a steady supply of cake frosting for him."

22:27 DaemonFC; He had her in court with a bunch of frivolous motions he didn't win. And then he didn't pay the lawyer he hired and his divorce lawyer sued him.

22:27 DaemonFC; Mom ended up filing bankruptcy to clear Brian's mortgage and debt to her divorce lawyer from the mess with DAVE and other shit.

22:27 DaemonFC; Like a crummy car she financed at Southwest Auto where they bondo'd over the rust and the whole thing was a bucket of bolts.

22:28 DaemonFC; Anyway, I keep telling her "He created as much of a mess as John did and it both got taken down to the bankruptcy court, so why are you sassing me over John? You did worse than John, three times."

22:29 DaemonFC; Divorce lawyers are more expensive than fighting the county prosecutor, you know, expungement case inclusive.

22:44 DaemonFC; The ironic thing though, when you compare the two scenes is that John Cavil wanted to be more of a machine when he was taking away what he'd been given from the machines.

22:45 MinceR; the second just looks like cylon infighting

22:45 DaemonFC; The raiders were cyborgs. They could experience everything Cavil couldn't and they could appreciate it because they had an organic brain with higher functions.

22:46 DaemonFC; He was scooping their brains out so they couldn't do anything except what he told them to.

22:46 MinceR; oh, the authors believed that a lump of wet flesh was required for higher functions?

22:47 DaemonFC; We don't know very much about the brain so we don't even know if we could design something functionally equivalent as an artificial intelligence.

22:47 DaemonFC; "Machine Learning" as we understand it is not anywhere close. Not even the same ballpark.

22:47 MinceR; we could build a computer that simulates physics, and put a human brain in that simulated world

22:48 DaemonFC; It requires an immense amount of data, it requires people to tell it if it's right or wrong, lots of labor hours, and it still gets things wrong.

22:48 MinceR; there's nothing magical about bags of water

22:48 DaemonFC; And since people are the "authority" on what's right or wrong, they can make it spout all sorts of ridiculous propaganda and lies, like what they're doing with Bing Chat, ChatGPT, and Google Bard.

22:49 DaemonFC; Their goal is to make it seem like it's a thinking machine when all it does is reassemble propaganda into new packaging on-the-fly.

22:49 DaemonFC; That's what they're doing off in Matt GULAG-land.

23:23 DaemonFC; No, I do not have any extra Y chromosomes.

23:23 DaemonFC; I've already been tested for that because it's one of the things the shrinks suggested based on junk science in the early 1990s.

23:24 DaemonFC; I have a better explanation.

23:24 DaemonFC; For my behaviors.

23:26 DaemonFC; It goes, "The school was boring me to death. I dropped out before I was even finished with 9th grade, my parents got warnings from the truancy officer, and formally withdrew me from school when I reached 16, and then I completed the five hour GED test in an hour and a half and did well above a passing score and so what would have been the point in sticking around a bunch of idiots that were...

23:26 DaemonFC; ...fucking each other and selling drugs....

23:26 DaemonFC; When the school actually demanded an IQ test around the third grade, it showed that I was actually smarter than anyone else in my class and they didn't have any legal justification for putting me in special education just to get me out of their hair.

23:27 DaemonFC; Indiana law at the time said you had to have an IQ below 75 to go to special ed and they said that mine (at the time on the test they used) was 136.

23:28 DaemonFC; You have to compare people in the same age group and so that was compared to other kids in the 3rd grade at that time.

23:28 schestowitz; DaemonFC: draft?>

23:29 DaemonFC; When the class is below your abilities the kid's mind wanders. They hate that kid because they're laying down at their desk and barely even paying attention and still doing fine on the test.

23:29 DaemonFC; And they can't explain it, so they single that one out for harassment.

23:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz Sure.

23:30 DaemonFC; I actually got yelled at so many times in grade school for "laying down at my desk" while the teacher was talking.

23:30 DaemonFC; They worry "the behavior will spread".

23:31 DaemonFC; My mom actually got into an argument with the teacher.

23:32 DaemonFC; She went into my math class and said she didn't care what the teacher allowed, I was not to use a calculator for anything.

23:32 DaemonFC; I was so pissed, so there was everyone else using a calculator eventually and me just doing the problems in my head.

23:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz Looks okay.

23:36 DaemonFC; Worth noting that Microsoft and Walmart share some of the same PR firms.

23:36 DaemonFC; So some of the layoffs might be that Walmart is cutting expenses and has less budget for the "bullshit canon" these days. They close lots of stores and list them as "MASS LAYOFF".

23:36 schestowitz; also: kevin turnet

23:36 schestowitz; microsoft/walmart

23:36 schestowitz; *turner

23:38 DaemonFC; There's a disturbing amount of cross-pollination between Walmart and Microsoft.

23:38 DaemonFC; Microsoft execs leave and join Walmart and then they "contract" with Microsoft.

23:39 DaemonFC; I don't even think this new policy of like 50 self-checkouts and two human cashiers makes sense, but they pushed it because each on of those machines runs Windows.

23:39 DaemonFC; It's an excuse to spend a lot of money with Microsoft for a thing that hurts Walmart's bottom line. They can justify it as "reduces labor" while they lose several times that in stolen merchandise.

23:40 schestowitz; " Ryan's spouse works at Walmart, where many layoffs are silently happening right now with HR tricks to keep quite about that, not just PR tricks."

23:40 DaemonFC; quiet

23:40 DaemonFC; But yes, they cut hours and then say there's no layoffs at that store.

23:40 DaemonFC; They reduced the open positions listed down to just 5 at the entire store, so it's obvious what's happening.

23:41 schestowitz; adding

23:41 schestowitz; 2 birds, one stone

23:41 DaemonFC; Not quite a hiring freeze, but just about one. They hire as few people as they can run the store with and "hours" for those that didn't quit when it got really bad slowly go back up as staffing levels off.

23:42 DaemonFC; They freeze, they make people panic and go find another job, and then it lets up a bit for those that had enough money to get through a really bad month.

23:42 DaemonFC; A month or two is all it takes when you're living on the edge of the knife anyway, with inflation and a job that doesn't pay a lot.

23:43 schestowitz; ok, finalising

23:43 schestowitz; added

23:43 DaemonFC; After the inflation battering ram and greedy landlords over the past few years, $18 may look like "Oh wow!" but like, you're thinking in 2019 dollars.

23:44 DaemonFC; When he started his job, they only paid him like a little under $12 an hour, and we seemed to do okay.

23:44 DaemonFC; But now it's almost $18 and we're not doing as well.

23:44 DaemonFC; It's like "Why is this?" The media lies and says inflation isn't "THAT" bad, but how the hell has both our income gone up by nearly a third in just three years and we're not doing as well?

23:45 schestowitz; marvel

23:45 schestowitz; thanks, joe

23:45 DaemonFC; It's because everything has gone up faster than that. Or else we'd be able to save as much as we did then.

23:46 DaemonFC; Yeah, this thing with Ukraine is a neverending money pit.

23:46 DaemonFC; They're not gaining ground on the Russians. Putin figures all he has to do is keep the situation no worse than it is and eventually Biden will lose the next election and the Republicans will cut Ukraine off.

23:46 DaemonFC; Then he'll conquer the rest.

23:47 DaemonFC; That's got to be what he's thinking.

23:48 DaemonFC; The whole thing with "cluster bombs" isn't something the US wanted to do, it's that we've allowed the situation to get so bad that we don't have the kind of suppliers we need to even restock artillery shells anymore.

23:48 DaemonFC; And it didn't even take a major war or a world war to do it. Just Putin sending some Soviet crap over the border into Ukraine for a year and a half.

23:49 DaemonFC; So we have all of these cluster bombs that those howitzers can fire instead of their regular shells.

23:49 DaemonFC; And so we hand it over and say "Here, kill some of those Russian bastards with THIS!"

23:50 DaemonFC; And of course it will leave unexploded bomblets all over their own country, but they don't have any choice.

23:50 DaemonFC; schestowitz I noticed something (tech related) today.

23:51 DaemonFC; I found one today where I can use SeaMonkey Mail but have it open in my system's default browser when I click a link.

23:51 DaemonFC; So it will open in the background in a new tab in GNOME Web, but I can use SeaMonkey for my mail and IRC.
